The general probability is 1/8. For it to be applicable to 32 women, one must multiply 4 to the numerator and denominator.

The final probability would be (1x4)/(8x4) which is 4/32.

Therefore, 4 women would be the answer.

Elena bought a backpacking tent to take with her on hiking trips.
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Question 1 = c) Medium: 88 ft²

Question 2 = d) 46.7 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

We would be solving this question by finding the surface area of the tent. The shape of the tent is a square based pyramid.

The surface area of a square based pyramid(tent) =

a² + 2ah

Where in the diagram,

a = base length = 4 ft

h = height of the pyramid (tent ) = 9ft

Surface area = 4² + 2 × 4 × 9

= 16 + 72

= 88ft²

Therefore, the size tarp should she purchase is Medium: 88 ft²

Question 2

For question 2, from the attached diagram, we can see that the diagram is a square based pyramid.

To calculate the amount of water that would fill the square based pyramid, we would have to find the Volume of the tent(square based pyramid).

The formula for the Volume of the tent(square based pyramid) = 1/3(a²h)

Where a = base edge

h = height of the pyramid.

From the diagram,

a = base edge => 4ft.

From the question,

h = height of the tent is given as how tall the tent is = 8.75ft.

Therefore, 1/3(a²h)

1/3 × (4ft)²× 8.75ft

= 46.67ft³

Approximately = 46.7ft³

Therefore, the amount of water it would it take to fill the tent, if the tent is 8.75 ft tall is 46.7ft³

(Solving Equations) Ken has $20.00. Coffee costs $4.79 per pound. Which equation will calculate the number of pounds of coffee,
aev [14]

Answer: A. 4.79(n)=20.00

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find what amount of coffee (per pound) is equivalent to $20.00

so we take the unknown amount (n) and multiply it by $4.79

for example, say Ken wants 4 pounds, we need to know if it is equivalent to $20.00

so take 4.79 and multiply it by 4 to see if it is equal to or less than $20.00 in this case $4.79 x 4 = $19.16  

hope this helps (^_^)
